The final round of LIV Golf Tulsa is happening at Cedar Ridge Country Club on Sunday and viewers have noticed that some of the course conditions don’t exactly look like they should.

The club, which is located in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, has hosted plenty of tournaments over the years, including the U.S. Women’s Open in 1983.

However, this weekend’s coverage of the LIV event revealed some pretty unflattering conditions across the course, including brown grass and extremely weathered grounds.

Specifically, there was one shot of Dustin Johnson teeing off that seemed to really look unprofessional.

That caught the attention of the golf world as onlookers continue to wonder whether or not LIV is a worthy challenger to the PGA Tour, where it’s extremely uncommon to see conditions like this.

“Watching some of the LIV event and man, that course is struggling a bit conditioning-wise, eh?” asked Dan Rapoport.

“The winter weather for that region and much of the country has caused issues that grounds teams have been fighting against. Coupled with milder temps and above avg rain falls healing these areas has been even more of an uphill battle. Mother nature is undefeated,” said Red Harrington.

“LIV Tour really playing tournaments at muni courses that cost $40. Tough scene,” said Cade Carlton.

Not a great look for LIV, especially given the kind of money they’ve thrown around otherwise.
